Food Scene

Delicious seafood, steaks, and drinks! Also, they have a lovely atmosphere that features some form of live music (solo pianist or guitarist), beautiful decor, and a killer view of the Arch especially at sunset. Be sure to check out the outdoor seating on the top level. The breeze will make you forget about everything except what is happening in that moment.

Amazing ambience! The food is delicious and the atmosphere very grown & sexy. The outdoor patio is luxurious and a perfect backdrop for the night sky and a bottle of some of the best wine you'll find in Cabo. Live music and DJs over the weekend make for a great night out.

Italian food in Cabo?? You found some of the best right here. Stuffed mushrooms, lasagna, seafood, steaks - all prepared the way you wish your Italian grandma would make it if you had an Italian grandma - wines imported from France and the hillsides of Tuscany... you really can't go wrong. Plan on spending some time here. You won't want to rush.

If you hate being on the best beach in Cabo, really hate eating amazing fresh-caught seafood, and despise culinary smackdowns featuring mouth-watering dishes then this place is not for you. Situated seaside, it's the best spot on Medano Beach and showcases a lively lounge area in the sand (you can order the entire menu from there) with an upscale venue just steps away. The view is breathtaking and you'll want to bring your bathing suit. A sudden urge to run into the Sea followed by another urge to order your next cocktail is likely to grip you. Fresh oyster bar, eggs benedict, Angus steak, live music on the weekends, hosted parties, etc. I almost don't want to give this one away....

Sister restaurant to Sur Beach House, Bahia is FUN! I recommend going on Friday nights as that is the most popular time and you can meet some great people. Outstanding bar staff will tend to you and help you come up with something new to try while you nosh on appetizers or find a great spot nearby to dine and enjoy the eclectic energy released into the night by their featured bands. This is a great spot to kick your night off!

This place is just stunning but be prepared to spend some money. It's worth every penny though. From the unparalleled sunset views from the cliffs overlooking the Sea of Cortes to the nightly ritual of sundown serenades to the amazing food and top notch service with a backdrop of strolling tenors...you won't regret a night here. Definitely make a reservation and definitely get there at least 30 minutes before sunset. You're welcome ; )

Sister restaurant to Sunset Monalisa without all the pomp but with the same impeccable service and view. This place is a bit more laid back with relaxed seating and a bit more lively with a good contemporary playlist playing in the background. The drinks are generous and the food is delicious - mostly Italian. If you're a pizza lover and can't get enough of truffle oil, you won't want to miss their signature pizza: The Sunset. OMG!!

I don't go anywhere else in town for sushi. Very fresh and well prepared. It's a bit pricier than some other places in town but I don't gamble with my digestive tract to save a few extra bucks. Excellent bar selection, strong drinks, great service, and right on the main street adjacent to Tesoro Hotel. Thumbs up!

The Outpost is so named because it is the satellite restaurant for the legendary Flora Farms. Organic cocktails, delicious tapas, all farm-sourced ingredients from their gardens in San Jose... Mmm-mm! A lively playlist, sexy decor and a rooftop lounge make this place a great spot to rest after a day of sightseeing or to kick off happy hour and a night on the town. Be sure to visit their store next door that has all kinds of sprays, balms, and potions - all created at the farm.

The perfect blend of a local and tourist spot, Solomon's boasts a waterside view of the marina and a lot of colorful people. They're open all day and you can grab a pretty good breakfast here. Some nights there's a live band and you'll find both tourists and locals alike jumping on the mic to belt out some songs...usually after a lot of drinks and no vocal lessons. LOL! It's a good time nonetheless and a great place to stop when you're touring the marina.

The home of Cabo's Pink Taco - a twist on a Taco Bell taco for homesick gringos...like me sometimes. ; ) Waterside restaurant next to the marina known for their good drinks and super chill vibe.

The only place I've found in town where you can get authentic Italian limoncellos and boy are they STRONG! Huge calzones, handmade/wood-fired pizzas, mouth-watering appetizers, and a funny and engaging staff will have you spending several hours here before you waddle out with your full belly. If the owner is there he'll probably stop by to say hi. Well worth the time...he's got fascinating stories and his passion for feeding people well is undeniable.

One of the few places that lives up to the hype. I love this place. Authentic Mexican food, huge cocktails, talented performers, and a warm inviting atmosphere... You'll feel like you've been hugged on the insides by the time you leave.

I love this place. It's a large size with a rooftop bar upstairs and killer bar but it still manages to feel homey and intimate. Great drinks and delicious small-portion plates with good imagination and traditional flair. Love it!

Where do you start with this place? LOL! You'll be hard pressed to find anyplace else in Cabo that looks, feels, sounds or tastes like The Roadhouse. Great spot that locals swear by featuring good/simple food, easy drinks and cheap prices. Breakfast is good as are the Taco Bell-like tacos. Burgers & fries, chicken-fried steak, and the cold roast beef sandwich are also winners. If Mike, the Captain Ahab-like owner, is there stop over, say hi and introduce yourself. He loves talking to his customers, telling some story or joke, and remembering the last time you came...even if it was a year ago :)

Drinks & Nightlife

Drinks, dancing, live music (that you want to dance to!) on a sexy rooftop overlooking Cabo San Lucas and the Sea of Cortez. The later it gets, the more fun you'll have. I'll just leave it at that....

Space Supperclub is a late-night spot that opened up Summer 2019 just across from the Marina. It's a great spot for drinks and delicious food before you hit the club circuit or if you need a refueling break in between. Midweek Ladies Night, Karaoke night, etc. Beautiful place with a DJ booth pumping out music to dance or dine to. Don't miss the Sunday brunches. To die for! And they serve bottomless mimosas to the ladies ;)

One of the top clubs in Cabo that is usually packed and overflowing during high season. Bottle service, hype girls, DJ playing some of today's hits, and good drinks. What it lacks in size, it makes up for in energy. Insta approved ✅

Mandala sits atop the Cabo Triangle (Mandala, Crush, Nowhere Bar) and reigns supreme in size and scope. You'll get it all here: dancing girls in cages, bottle-popping, DJ competing with Crush's DJ for ruling playlist and speaker volume, and dancing dancing dancing on large lighted floors until the wee hours of the morning.

Sightseeing

It's one of the reasons so many people come to Cabo and, though touristy, it's not a waste of a day by any stretch of the imagination. Take a panga or go on a sunset cruise to the Arch, jump out and go for a swim or lounge on either Lover's Beach or Divorce Beach, hike to the top for a view you'll not get in very many places. Say hi to the sea lion colony that lives nearby as you cruise from the Sea of Cortez side to the Pacific side. This is one thing that never gets old.

They call this the 'gringo store' because...well you can get the specialized foods you like here when you can't get them anywhere else. Gluten-free foods, American brand name products, dietary and lifestyle foods that will keep your regimen on track can all be found here but you will pay for them. The owners know they have this niche cornered and know they don't have to sell at a discount. You'll feel it but, in the end, it's worth it.
